Description of the problem	I purchased my 2019 subaru forester sport on friday, 4/19/19. On saturday, 4/20/19 i was driving on the interstate in the right lane with a pickup truck pulling a trailer ahead and in the lane to my left. I did not see anything, but heard a crack and my windshield cracked from the top just a few inches from center toward the passenger side down towards the center of the windshield. Upon inspection of the windshield it appeared that a small rock may have hit the windshield near the top in the section of the windshield which is black. The dealer stated it was hit by something and therefore not covered under warranty. I filed a claim with my insurance and paid the deductible to have the dealer replace the windshield. I picked up the vehicle monday, 5/6/19 after having the windshield replaced. On wednesday, 5/8/19 while driving in town at approximately 35mph with nobody in front of me, the windshield cracked from the bottom right hand corner up towards the center of the windshield. I took the vehicle to the dealer who could not find any impact damage causing the crack. They agreed to replace the windshield at no charge to me. I picked up the vehicle on tuesday 5/14/19 after the second windshield replacement. As of today, thursday 5/16/19 the windshield does not have any damage, although with having two windshields replaced within less than one month of ownership, it appears there is some sort of problem with the manufacturing and/or design of the subaru vehicles and/or windshields.
